　No. 23, also known as "Passion".　It is said to be one of Beethoven's masterpieces of the middle period of his piano sonatas.　The range of the piano is much wider (68 keys made by Erard), and the effect of the piano is said to have been used very well in the composition.　However, the octave "Do" in the third movement 310, bar 312, and the third...

How about Mozart? My teacher recommended it, so I transcribed the Fantasy in D minor, K. 397. This short piece is a famous work often played at concerts, but it's actually also famous for being "unfinished." Mozart had envisioned a much larger work...

　I've started studying to see if it's time to go for No. 29 ("Hammerklavier").　I have been reading various literature little by little, and I have come to realize that it is extremely difficult even for pianists.　It seems that even professionals have a hard time with this piece.　Therefore, I am wondering if there are any con...

　When I type in my own way or listen repeatedly to the pieces from around No. 28 to the last period, No. 32, I find them differently appealing compared to the earlier pieces.　There are certainly some great songs before that time, and I can feel the talent emanating from them.　But apparently, for me now, they all seem to be...

　Finally, we got to the point where number 28 was "just fine". This time it took me more than 7 months.　The recital was postponed for a year due to the Corona earthquake, so I was able to take my time and have a lot of lessons during that time.　Next...

　I reviewed the areas of concern in #31.　The main points are the correction of the legato part and the dina mique.　I think the most important point is whether the third movement is well drawn or not.　It's the interaction between the two "Klagender Gesang" and the fugue...

　I made some changes to #32, which had been bothering me for some time.　　The focus this time was on the balance of volume and minor corrections to tempo articulation.　The following is a comment I received from a teacher who was giving me lessons through audio files. 　For example, I would have...

　How about Schubert?　My teacher recommended that I type D.935, Op.142-1 from 4Impromptus.　I listened to several pianists play it while following the score.　But it took me quite a while to get to the point where I thought, "I would like to play this...

　No. 24, commonly known as "Thérèse." A beautiful little piece in two movements. The opening four measures are probably the most crucial part. It took me quite a while to get this section right. I just couldn't bring myself to say "Well, that'll do." Title: Piano Sonata No. 24 in C minor, Op. 73, No. 2.

Next, please listen to No. 31. This piece also took me quite a while to master. As a result, the lesson notes compiling the teacher's comments became quite substantial. They're truly a treasure to me. Now, there are two key points to listen for in ”Klagender...".
